It Beats the Purpose! - TSC

About a month ago or so… TSC launched their Green bags. I was delighted and picked some for my shopping and been using them every since even when I go to the Co-op, doing my best to decrease the use of plastic bags. Today I stopped at Sultan and had my bag with me. I also had the boyos who were driving me crazy to distraction. While paying I put my Green bag supposedly the staff there should know that they should put my groceries in it. I turn around finding my green bag at the side and the bag boy (is that what they call them?) puts my groceries in plastic bags!!! That is the second time it happens to me at TSC. Then I ask the bag boy to remove the groceries from the plastic bags and put them back in the green bag, at the same time I was trying to hold Ahmed who wanted to bolt somewhere. When I turned back instead of emptying the plastic bags he put the bags in my green bag. I was beyond pissed now. Why is Sultan selling Green bags if their staff don't understand the purpose of it??? And the bag boy was looking at me "Yalla '7al9een bas!". I was going to go complete "Dathra Madness" on him… but had enough on my plate with the boys. I didn't want to create much drama. I took my bag and left.

  4. LOL!! Those who follow your blog will know what I mean ;) You know when Dathra's brains stops functioning and her temper takes over and says the first thing which comes to her mind? but ends up making a cake out of herself.... Well in my case my other personality comes out ;p all pretense of respectability and propreity evaporates and I have a very foul mouth...a sailors mouth ;pp So I try to keep that part of me dormant most of the time ;)
